LSX RWD S/C conversion
Thread Starter
iTrader: (2)
The new "to me" '06 has cai/header/dp/60lb inj/meth/2.6 pulley/machined snout/hurst shifter/wicked tune/Ingalls TD/Eibach springs(to be sold)/shaved badges&trunk plus the quaife/exedy/DSS stage 2 axles/JBP coilover kit/JBP strut bar/JBP crankshaft pulley/dual pass option B and a Fluidyne HE.
Also a Alpine aftermarket stereo wich I will keep only if I can make it work with the steering wheel controls.
As for the cost on the RWD conversion, Greased got it right. I am not going to say.
Lets just call me an idiot and get it over with.
As for that car, the wheel tubs and floor are going in this week. The aluminum racing seats are mounted and late next week it goes to JBP for the turbo brackets as well as some wiring and the running of the brake/fuel lines.

As for a wife who "allows it", treat her like a queen everyday and she will treat you great too.

Sorry it hasn't ended yet, but I am getting closer and one day I can start a new thread saying she is finished.As for the LSJ, it the heart of this project.
What is so strange about this as a daily driver???? This is what I should have done to my first SS/SC and then stopped.
As for my RWD project, once it goes to JBP, I will be getting another set of detailed pictures and I will post them here.

And you can make the steering controls work with that adapter.

I will track down that adapter.
I am really looking forward to getting this car. It will definitely help me cope while I am waiting for the project to wrap.
